Can I stick a suction cup on the operator wall in front of me?

He said a light, this could be an led that costs $.10. We mounted led's on a telescoping antenna ached to the OI last year for a heads up display. Phone cable was wrapped around the antenna to bring power to the led.

I'm not sure about the answer on this. I remember one year we used a HUD device. We bent lexan and mounted the LED to the lexan. The lexan then attatched to our hats we had on and could see the light perfectly. The wires ran down the side and then to it OI. Just a suggestion.

I don't think they would really care. But if you think they might you can attach it to your controller with a tall pole.

I think that suction cup would technically "not fit" on the operator shelf. However, you can stick the led to your safty glasses in a form of wearable controls.

We did this last year and it worked great!
